Visit our Showroom This Sunday October 21 2016

Is it summer or fall? The weather this week has me thinking of June or July but not October.  As it turns out the weather will be more seasonal for our Fall Open House this Sunday.  I’ve been busy all week getting the showroom ready. I hope you’ll be able to join the fun as we open our doors, welcome the fall and the busy holiday season ahead.

Here is a preview of all the excitement we have in store...

Due Cellucci Tomato Sauce Sampling: From 1:30-3pm, Stefanie, the creator of Due Cellucci Tomato Sauces, will be on site with her delicious sauces warmed up and ready to taste.

EssieSpice TamarindOh! Tequila Sunrise Punch: We are always looking for new ways to use our products and this recipe from EssieSpice is perfect. We’ll have a kid-friendly version as well. 

Special Markdowns: We have a few specials cooked up for Sunday including Rococo Chocolates Bee Bars for just $1 each and Tiny But Mighty Popcorn at half-price!

Fall is Here! September 23 2016

Yesterday marked the first official day of fall, if you are looking at the calendar.  The weather in New York seems to be paying attention as we have relatively cool temperatures ahead of us. I’m excited to get out my jackets and sweaters. I just love being outside with a little chill in the air while still enjoying lots of sunshine.

While the beginning of fall marks a change in weather it also marks a transition from the freedom of the summer to the structure of the fall and the rest of the school year.  My son is finishing his second week of school and we are starting to get into a routine.  Having a daily routine helps me stay focused and also let’s me plan ahead.  Right now I’m working on the details of our Fall Open House.  Save the date for Sunday October 23rd.  If you are in the New York area I hope you’ll make plans to pop by and see what we are all about. I’m not going to spoil all of the surprises just yet, but know it is going to be a fantastic day filled with delicious samples from our magnificent marketplace!

I hope the autumn weather is sneaking in wherever you are.  Have a great weekend picking apples, raking leaves and watching football.

Happy Friday,

Julie
